Abstract:
:Current studies verify the safety of surgery in the elderly. Delirium is a costly complication, but its incidence and severity can be reduced by pre- and postoperative interventions. Avoidance of even mild hypothermia has now been shown to reduce cardiovascular morbidity. New information available on the cardiovascular response of elderly patients to laparoscopic surgery highlights the importance of avoiding preoperative dehydration. Proper pain management minimizes complications and promotes recovery.
